No more “OK, just five more minutes” of TikTok doom scrolling.

Important note: Once it’s locked, there are no overrides. So in case of emergencies, you’ll need a backup plan: access to another phone (such as a roommate’s) or, as reviewers note, the option to break the box. Hopefully it never comes to that, but if it does, they sell replacement bases separately (more sizes available on their website).

Kitchen Safe is a US-based small business that specializes in lockboxes to help curb distracting habits.  

Promising reviews: “Once you start implementing this into your daily routine, you will see many changes for the better in your life! Especially if using for your phone, you learn to be away from it and not focus on the stresses that phones can create. The functionality of the timer is awesome as well. I love how easy it is to set a time up on it and to quickly do so, as sometimes I hesitate in wanting to put my phone in there. But once I do, I can’t go back, and that is a great thing!” —Julia

“Simple and easy to use. I like the opaque base, so it is out of sight (even if it is not out of mind…). This is not an industrial safe, of course. One solid hit with a regular claw hammer will shatter the base without damaging the lid (don’t ask me how I know this). If you are determined to get your item out, you can, but it is built-in willpower for whatever you want to use less of. And replacement bases can be purchased on their site for a very reasonable price, so if the temptation is too great, you don’t have to buy a whole new unit.” —Carol D.

Get it from Amazon for $59+ (available in five colors, with a white or clear base, and three sizes). 

As you can see from the above GIF, I bought these for myself, and I love them to pieces. TBH, I use them as decor every bit as much as I use them to eat. Sometimes I just keep them in my work area to light them up during the day to feel fancy. They toggle back and forth between a bunch of different colors, like red, blue, yellow, purple, and multicolor, so you can either make them match *or* have a red and blue one together and bring ~balance~ to the Force.

Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (available in two colors).
